A party of four older black men were sat in Curly Sue’s section tonight. When he arrives at the table he notices the four men have pushed their water glasses into the middle of the table. He starts to offer them water but is quickly interrupted by one of the men. He loudly complains that their glasses are filthy and requests new ones. Curly Sue looks at the glasses and sees a few tiny water spots and replies “Sure, I’ll get you some new glasses. All of the glasses have water spots though so it’ll take about 30 minutes or so.” The man countered Curly Sue’s wiseass remark with “Why don’t you just make it 2 hours?” Curly Sues agreed to do so and walked into the back to get some clean glasses. When he returned he saw the man standing at the hostess stand, obviously waiting for a manager. When the manager arrives, the man requests to be moved to a new section, with a new server. The rest of the table’s meal was pretty uneventful. The manager bought some of the table’s food and the men spite tipped their new server $20 on $80.
Later on while I was walking through Curly Sue’s section I overheard the following conversation:
Guest: I don’t think we have time to wait for our food
Curly Sue: Well, you thought you had time 5 minutes ago when you ordered it
Guest: We have tickets to the show
Curly Sue: You had tickets to the show 5 minutes ago, when you ordered your food, also
Curly Sue’s an ass… I don’t like water spots either. They are formed because of particles of little bits of turd in the washing machine dries up on them. Turd on anything coming near my mouth is nasty!
Huh? You lost me at turds…. not sure if you are referring to the same type of water spots.
I mean hard water spots, which form because of mineral deposits left on glasses after the water is allowed to evaporate. Las Vegas water is actually classified as “very hard” – it contains calcium and magnesium at a rate of more than 16 grains per gallon. These water spots aren’t harmful and if you are drinking the tap water that contains the same minerals that produced the spots to begin with I can’t imagine being upset by it.
I agree about turds in my mouth though – not a big fan.
This chic is like a servers walking ‘in my dreams I could say…’ But, we don’t actually get to say it. Be honest, you polish the water glass and have them on the table in four minutes. And you offer to speak to the kitchen and hurry their entrees along. But, it would be amazing to be able to actually say what you were really thinking. Unfortunately I need my job.
I love Curly Sue’s smart-ass-ness. I wish I had the balls to talk to some of my customers like that. Lord knows, sometimes they really deserve it.
